Dar-Koldor Rebel Concept 2

Description

Since I'm holding my first official playtest of The Shadow of the Dog Lord Roleplaying Adventure Game this Saturday, I figured I may as well start doing some pictures of the main characters, allies, enemies, some maps of the land, etc so that people can get a thorough understanding of what exactly this world is.

Learning some Anglo-Saxon writing was a cakewalk, but making the calendar will take a while :P

Anyways, here is a newer take on the costumes for the Rebels of Dar-Koldor. I wanted these guys to have a classic "ranger-y" look to them, but to have their cloaks, etc to be really close to their bodies, so that nothing would get caught on a branch, enemy spikey weapon, etc. This particular design actualy was inspired by the new Quidditch robes that were worn during the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film that I thought looked really neat.

I wasn't too happy with the way the sword turned out until I coloured it...it was suppsed to be a big wide sword with two fullers down the blade. I really like the red and gold colouration...it makes for a slightly more noble and regal weapon.

And I realised that I forgot to make the standard Tar-Koldor basket handle on the sword, so I coloured their trousers in a lovely blue-green to connect them to the Wolf Empire, the sister kingdom of Dar-Koldor.

I'll post more drawings later during the week, as well as higher quality and better resolution versions of my maps (since I discovered that Kinko's will scan them for me for a small price).

Cheers!

Fery nice mate. Nice idea with the cloak, although it now looks more like a sleeveless greatcoat (e.g. like Aragorn's coat in the FotR film, but without sleeves). That said, maybe a duster or other type of greatcoat would be the way to go? It'd still retain a degree of the classic ranger look, while still being different, and would look a bit like a more medieval version of the frock coats worn by some of your PotC-inspired Georgean/Victorian-esque pics :)
